The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for a left eye disorder, finding no evidence of a current disability related to his military service. The right eye disorder claim was remanded for further development.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a diagnosis of a left eye disorder and there was no nexus established between any diagnosed condition and the Veteran's active military service.
